Now Confirmed.
Predictions were right, now the Prada Group has officially announced that Pieter Mulier, ex-creative director of Alaïa, will be heading to Versace. Effective July 1st, 2026, this high-profile appointment marks the definitive start of a new chapter for the legendary Italian house after the short tenure of Dario Vitale.
By bringing Mulier into the fold, Versace and the Prada Group are signalling a bold strategic pivot, aiming to harmonise the brand’s historic high-octane energy with a more nuanced, contemporary vision of luxury.
Mulier’s move to the Medusa’s helm comes after a career spent defining the aesthetic soul of the world’s most influential brands. From his foundational work alongside Raf Simons at Jil Sander, Dior, and Calvin Klein to his recent mastery of silhouette at Alaïa, Mulier has earned a reputation for technical precision and sensuality, something that we know Donatella did perfectly.
